An old bill of sale reveals that the narrator’s mother sold Gus his garage 50 years ago under a strict promise of honest service.
When inspecting her car, Gus uncovers a dishonest scam run by his manager, who routinely overcharged elderly customers for unneeded repairs.

By spending Saturdays being mentored by the mother, Braden learns true craftsmanship, proving that integrity matters far more than profit.
